Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI):
Here are some predictions about artificial intelligence that these effects will not only affect this year but also several industries where artificial intelligence will affect our daily lives.

The buzz about AI and its impact now and beyond shows no signs of slowing down. Driven by the advent of virtual assistants such as the Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant device ecosystems, artificial intelligence is now integrated into consumers' daily lives. Although the future possibilities cannot be determined, the maturity of combining artificial intelligence and automation technology is growing at an alarming rate in some industries.
Here are predictions about how AI will impact not only this year, but also multiple industries that affect our daily lives, especially healthcare, manufacturing, and mobility.
Health Care:
The field of digital health has become a hot topic, and this concept seems to be expected to become common this year, thanks in large part to the further innovations by AI. With the theme of prevention rather than treatment, digital health systems have made many advances, and more companies will join them. In the United States, startups such as 23andMe and Color are market leaders in genomic analysis, while companies such as Genesis Healthcare and Genoplan stand out in Japan and South Korea, respectively. These companies use genomic analysis to understand potential diseases in advance and provide effective prevention methods.
The development of artificial intelligence will also improve the quality of treatment. These years, AI will be used to diagnose many medical images taken using MRI, CT scans and X-rays. Startups Enlitic, Zebra Medical Vision and Aidoc (Israel) are noteworthy leaders in this space.
It is worth noting that Google and Johnson & Johnson announced a joint venture in 2015 to jointly develop next-generation surgical robot systems, which is another breakthrough in this field. Verb Surgical is building a digital surgery platform that combines robotics, advanced visualization, advanced instrumentation, data analysis and connectivity.
Manufacturing:
This year will be a breakthrough moment for artificial intelligence in manufacturing. With the growth of the elderly population in developed countries, manpower shortages have begun to appear in the manufacturing space, and we will see the implementation of AI and industrial robots in the manufacturing space to make up for the reduced labor supply.

In the U.S., top startups such as Vicarious, Kindred, and Osaro have stood out in their use of various artificial intelligence technologies in manufacturing and industrial fields. Kindred's technology has been used to automate some of the distribution processes of well-known apparel brands such as GAP. Vicarious has also attracted a lot of attention due to unused types of artificial intelligence from other companies, and investments from prominent entrepreneurs such as Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk.
Following in the footsteps of the United States, we have also seen similar technological developments in the field of AI in Japan. Listed companies such as Omron, FANUC and Yaskawa Electric are already implementing AI for their industrial robots. We also saw top Japanese startups like MUJIN and Preferred Network, which have made huge progress in AI implementation for industrial automation.
Automobile:
This year and beyond, the United States and China will be clear leaders in the development and implementation of mobile solution AI. We expect Tesla to introduce autonomous driving features on the city streets for mass adoption, which will mark a significant moment in the history of artificial intelligence. Uber even promised to begin testing its Uber Air flying taxi service in 2020. In the next few years, more tests and investments will be made in the autonomous vehicle and electric air taxi markets. From electric scooters to bicycles, other micro-traffic solutions this year will also begin to demonstrate the capabilities of AI.

We expect that there may be some of the first mini-motorized fleets that can be automatically summoned to various locations as needed. In addition, we would like to see AI technologies (such as images, video and speech recognition) in the microtechnology spectrum have been integrated into various solutions.
Cases of artificial intelligence are endless, many cases expected in the coming years and these are just a few of them.
